| X1487 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls}3/KT. February 15th 1933. The S.U. Company, East Works, Bordesley Green Road, Adderley Park, B'ham. For the attention of Mr. Skinner. Dear Mr. Skinner, We find we have no 1¼" diameter throttle bore carburetters, ours all being 1½". We send you herewith a sketch of the pipe and should be glad to have your approval. That being so, will you also send us three carburetters, as we do not know the centres of the flanges on the induction pipe until we have seen them. Yours sincerely, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
